Hello,

As you may know, inappropriate posts maybe removed without notice. I understand the reasoning behind that rule. Nevertheless, I must ask that the mods/AKs who deleted the post -excepting in cases of random spams- keep the post itself in case users ask for it back.

Thank you for your consideration,
PBlades

 Ok, first, posts that are usually deleted without notice are usually responses to other inappropriate posts. However, it has happened that the case is they are deleted without notice, but the forum staff usually warns people posts may be deleted from the thread without notice.

And, stemming from that, some post deletion notices don't happen via PM; in some discussion threads, ie. war threads for example, it's plausible for the forum staff to post a notice there, as well.

Second, ruling out random spam, posts that are deleted break the forum rules, and are oftentimes rude. I fail to see why anyone would want to keep that. To laugh at, maybe, but that's, in very blunt words, mean. Not just to the person whose feeling you're going to hurt, but to AE's Universal Rules made to keep and promote their user's civilized interaction.

 In a notice, AKs provide a quote of the post (or sections that broke the rules) in the PM. That's what is meant to happen. An AK may have overlooked this at some point, accidentally, but that is what usually happens.

I suppose clarification might be in order. The post itself touches upon one of the topics in probation. It wasn't rude, and the person that deleted it says that permission must be asked from Eukara Vox before the subject can be discussed. The reason it was deleted for wasn't even the primary point of the post- a 5 minute edit would have sufficed to remove the elements one might consider inappropriate.

The post itself was an opening post for a new thread in OOC.

Very well. If it's an accident, then I can't fault them for it.

Apologies for the confusion,
